iPhone Ghost App Fools ‘The Sun’

No seriously. If any editors from The Sun newspaper are reading this, please…just stop.

The Sun has been the joke of recent online ghost photo hoaxes. So it’s no surprise that yesterday’s post in The Sun’s website about a “Weeping … ghostly figure of girl in mirror” was an automatic junk post. As soon as I saw the image, I checked the screenshots for the the iPhone app called “Ghost Capture”. In the exact same method The Sun was fool with the “ghost boy” photograph, again we see one of the “ghosts” from the iPhone app making headlines.

Check it:

Are the editors at The Sun even trying?

So I got to thinking….maybe they do this on purpose.

I mean, all these types of posts do is create something that goes viral within minutes. So if my math is correct: Instant traffic boom = hits = advertiser $$$

But don’t quote me on that; after all I did take pre-calculus like 3 times.

That was my take. They do it on purpose. I mean, what else do they do but manufacture stories?

When a news agency can’t afford real investigation they need to fill pages somehow. Of course I use the term “news agency” very lightly.

Though laughable, you gotta give the writers credit for throwing in words and phrases like hysterical, spine-tingling image, the guest was properly shaken, and my fave- “… we have closed off the room to check that there is nothing untoward there.” I’m laughing even as I type this lol.

I know for a fact that this is true because years before the hotel was built my father and a few more Irish travellers where staying there when a little girl about (3-5) years old that was wearing a checked dress was killed by a worker of the family business she was had ever bone in her body broke and was stuffed in a tool box she was found by her father when every 1 was looking for her the only reason he found her was he Herd a whimpering moaning voice coming from the tool box and the was a loch of blonde curly hair hanging out of the tool box
